APPLE | TOFFEE | FLORAL

Olvin Fernández has been one of our longest-standing producer partners, with 2015 marking the first year we began purchasing his coffee. Based in Las Flores in Honduras, Olvin processes his coffees at a shared mill used by his farm and those of his brothers. Since 2019, we’ve worked closely with Olvin to separate and present the different varieties grown on his farm as distinct lots, allowing each to highlight its unique character in the cup.

Parainema has become an important variety in Honduras -- initially planted for its resilience to leaf rust, but later recognized for its exceptional cup quality. Olvin maintains a dedicated section of his farm for Parainema, which he processes as a washed coffee and carefully dries in parabolic dryers to preserve clarity and structure.

This year’s Parainema from Olvin Fernandez is expressive and refined, with layered sweetness and elegant aromatics. Notes of crisp apple lead the profile, supported by smooth toffee sweetness and a delicate floral finish.
